This is the first I've heard of this Swansea malarky ! I sold my car last week and sent the v5 form to the address at the bottom (Coleraine) will it get redirected to Swansea ?

Got confirmation letter today ! Phew. Just waiting for my new V5 , and considering i actually posted it to the right place it should be ok ;)

It has taken 5 weeks, for swansea to send me cheques out for tax I have cashed in.

I sent it recorded delivery, because they have already lost documents on us.

I have had nothing but trouble with them, its a complete and utter joke that we have to deal with those on the mainland.

He went to the one on the corner of high and bridge street and they said no can do and told him to phone Swansea. He got it sorted on the phone only took a matter of minutes. How long had the porker been on sorn for?

Trying to Tax her car online. She can't remember were she has left the log book but on the website it is asking for a 16 digit reference from the V11 form. We have this but it is a V11(NI) and there is no 16 digit number anywhere on it ???

Naturally the office only works mon-fri so can't call.
Am I missing something here? (apart from her tax book !!!!)

Couldn't find it on mine either, but I am more organised than you and had the log book :p

Not sure, got the numbers ok processed the payment then it came up there was an authorisation issue and to call a number shown which states they are open Saturday until 17:30. Called that and it says they are closed :worried:

Should add, it's not a bank issue as we called them to make sure.

Yes
Does anyone know if you need to send your MOT disc off to Swansea with the other docs to get a new reg assigned? Cant see online anywhere and the form is obviously mainland based which dont have MOT discs!

Take a photocopy/display it on your car and send the original?
